Soooo... I've been itching to try something big and audacious, like an RP where aliens invade. What do you guys think about that?

Are we looking at an Independence Day scale invasion, or a secret invasion a la Invasion of the Body Snatchers?

id be interested on either scale.
I was thinking a high-action, super-kinetic thrill ride of an RP, so a Rikti-style invasion was my initial thought.

I'm not familiar with the Rikti, or their invasion style. ^_^ But if it's somewhere in the range I gave above, count me in.
BTW, the bugs that originally kidnapped Henry Martian are still out there, except for one base that got hit by pirates out in the IJC neighborhood. If they were to invade, and Henry were to find out and maybe juryrig his ship with a drive from a captured bug ship (since the ships out that way only work with the IJC network), he could possibly get here in time to warn the world. Or maybe just a bit late...

Well, funnily enough, I was thinking of making the invaders insectile. Tell me more about these bugs of yours.

The Bugs
(Inspired by the pseudo-arachnids of Heinlein's [i]Starship Troopers[/i] and the markann of [url=http://www.sjgames.com/gurps/books/aliens/]GURPS: Aliens[/url], and a sprinkling of the Laamviin from Smith's [i]Their Majesties' Bucketeers[/i].)
Eight-limbed body structure, rear four specialized for locomotion, top two for tool use, middle pair generalized. Claws on all, but they are smaller on top pair.
Exoskeleton, fairly tough but if punctured requires tech to stem blood loss. Lungs and closed circulatory system. Biotech not as advanced as other technology.
Not hive society, but current dictatorship comes close ^_^
Different FTL system to that of the IJC. After loss of their base, they went covert or pulled out of all systems with IJC link.
Not sure why they want Earth.

I'll think about using them, Foradain, but this idea doesn't seem to be attracting much interest, so I'm going to put it on the back burner for now.
